Legend of Xanadu II Translation Patch announced!

[termis]

Yeah, if someone did dump the script, I'd certainly take a look into translating it.  Though my Japanese isn't my primary or secondary language, I do have some experience in the art of translating (I translated for a couple US manhwa publishers), so I can probably make it sound decent.

A bigger problem for me (Much like the Joe who translated the PC version of DK3),  I haven't played the prequels, so I can only make presumptions during dialogs where it refers to such events.

Hm...  I've never visited, but I'll give it a go.  Just registered.

If you do and you put a team together, I can help out. Console code print routines and string read routines are my specialty for PCE (for making the inserted script actually look good and not have poor "tracking" you normally get if you don't change the print routine).

I'll keep that in mind.  I certainly don't know much about hacking part of the game.

Jiminy Christmas, some crazy Japanese person typed up the entire goddamn script of Tengai Makyo II and organized it really well. It's about eight times the size of Xanadu II, though that's just an estimate. Here I was thinking it would be nice to have something to work on while Esperknight tackled the hacking of Xanadu II, and I pretty much got it. Esperknight is already familiar with TMII's hacking side...damn, we could really do this.

Would you guys be interested in playing Tengai Makyo II?

Would you guys be interested in playing Tengai Makyo II?

Hell yes!

"H" to the "E" to the "L" to the "L" to the "Y" to the "E" to the "A" to the "H"!

OK, I talked to Esperknight, and I think we're on for TMII. While I'm waiting for the rest of the Xanadu II script to come along, and while he's writing the insertion program later, I'll chisel away at this giganto TMII writeup I got. The script is huge as hell, but the organization makes it easy to work with.

Anyway, Xanadu II is still a major event to look forward to. Honestly, it's the game I prefer to play. I hope we get it done soon. At the same time, it's also obvious how cool it would be to do a TMII translation. We'll see how it goes!

That would be a dream come true. :O

[nectarsis]

That would be a dream come true. :O

*Head explodes*  I will DEF be all over this   

[Keranu]

That would be a dream come true. :O

Likewise! Unbelievable!

[SignOfZeta]

Yes, thanks please.

Nice.  I still need to finish up Ziria (in the middle of it, and it's been going slow...), but playing TM II without straining my brain would be nice.

Could you send me the script, I may help as I wouldn't want to tackle this game's translation alone?
I'll PM you my e-meil address.

I appreciate your offer, but if I'm going to do this, I'd rather do it alone. I can make it more consistent that way, especially since the typed-up script is linear. I've done professional translation projects (almost) this big before, and I can knock this out fast enough. I'm already making good progress on it while I'm waiting. I have a lot of free time these days thanks to the economy. 

The only reason why Xanadu II has been taking so long is because the hacking side turned out to be a giant pain in the ass. Similarly, I bet I can finish the TMII script before Esperknight can prepare a reinserter (maybe I should make a bet with him to motivate us).

Thanks again!

[shubibiman]

No worry. But I'd like to make a french translation of it at least
